"The first sound is set in motion, is caught up by the next, which is caught up by the next, etc., in a powerful crescendo."  In 1961, Else Marie Pade wrote the tape composition Etude, which was met with greater excitement among reviewers than electronic music in general at the time. The length of the piece is 333 seconds, and as a tribute to Else Marie Pade 11 artists have remixed Etude – all 11 remixes with the same length as the original, available on a new album from Dacapo "EMP RMX 333 – a tribute to Else Marie Pade (1924-2016)". The results are greatly diverse, but all show the inspiration from the grandmother of Danish electronic music who insisted that all sounds are equally valid.
